<p class="heading2a">Usage</p>
<div class="content">
public void setLabelOffset(double offset)
</div>
<p class="heading2">Description</p>
<div class="content">
Shifts the axis labels from its default position along the axis.<br><br>
The offset can be specified in axis scale unit. For example, an offset of 50 means the tick is shifted 50 units along the axis.<br><br>
The offset can also be specified as a multiple of the major tick increment. This is by using the <a href="Chart.TickInc.htm">TickInc</a> predefined constant to represent the major tick increment. For example, an offset of 0.5 * <a href="Chart.TickInc.htm">TickInc</a> means the offset is half the major tick increment.<br><br>
To shift the axis labels in pixel units, the <a href="Box.setPos.htm">Box.setPos</a> method of the axis label prototype (obtained using <a href="Axis.setLabelStyle.htm">Axis.setLabelStyle</a>) can also used instead.
